ENJOY LIFE.

What truly beautiful world we live
in! Nature gives us grandeur of noun
tains, glens and oceans, and thousands
of means of enjoyment. We can desire
no better when in perfect health; but
how often do the majority of people
feel like giving it up disheartened, dis
couraged and worn out with disease,
when there is no occasion for this feel.

satisfactory proof that Green's August

enty-five per cent. of such maladies as
Biliousness, Indigestion, Sick Head

Southern Methodism.

The past year has been one of
the most successful in the history
of the Southern Methodist church.
From the general minutes, now be-
ing prepared for publication by DR..
w. P Harrison, and a manuscript
of which a Banner reporter has
seen, the following figures were
cleaned:
The total net increase of member
ship last year was 1888; the pres
emf membership is 1866 77. The
increase IN the number of Sunday
schools scholars was 50,772, there
now being 612,519 scholars. The
number of churches is 1881, with
an estimated value of $17,lS8,1 49
The number of parsonages is 2,O4O,
valued at $l,247,2SS. There are
$3.50 local preachers, being a net
gain of only 46 over the year be-
fore. The number CT travelling
preachers is 4,334, being net gain
| of 129.

Senator Sherman made wicked
mlsstatement OF fact when he said
IN his Nashville speech that he had
voted for thP Blair bill The Con-
9ressional Record is a witness that
he told an outright falsehood. He
was, coached by the Nashville re-
pnblicans to say something kind
about Gov. Taylor and make it APP
pear that he agreed with him in or
der to make the governor odious to
some OF his own party and thus
widen the breach. 1t was a smart
trick, and the grave senator delib-
erately falsified himself to carry it
out, and We ale ashamed to say
that some democrats were caught in
the trap set for gudgeons. The
Lawrence Democrat still pursues
the governor and last week it gloat-
ed because Mr.. Sherman had help
ed it to make the governor odious.
The Democrat accepts Mr.. Sher-
mans statement as true that he al
ways favored the Blair bill, when Ii
might inform itself better in five
minutes. If it desires to discuss
this matter from such maliclously
false premise it will have to do il
alone. The Democrat and the Law
renee Union were yieing with each
other in abusing Gov. Taylor, ano
now the Democrat lends itself to the
mendacious scheme the Nashville
republicans concocted to have
Sherman perjure himself to injurt
GOV. Taylor. Even the American
was forced to say that Sherman lied
although it sneakingly sought t.
use his peUured statement to thu
governors injury. 1t is strange
that any democrat is green enough
to be caught by this silly scheme
and i is stranger still that our gooC
friends of the Lawrence Democra
are cheek byjowl with the republi
cans in the war on a democratic
governor.

STARVATION IN TEXAS.
The Destitution and Suffering About
Sprlngtown Parker County Described.

Parker county is still embraced
within the drouth stricken district
of west Texas, and the dread
scourge still hangs like pail over
our once prosperous and goodly
,aud. To-day the 1st of April the
ground is as dry and parched and
roads as dusty as they usually are
in the months of August and Sep
TENDER. There were a few slight
showers of rain during last October
and one the 9th of February, just
enough to lure the farmers that
could procure seed oats and corn
to plant it. There being no rain
since and in many incidents there
was insufficient moisture to germi-
nate the seed, consequently it still
remains in the dust. The general
outlook for crop in this section is
anything but encouraging, as our
best crop years are preceded by a
heavy rainfall during fall and the
winter seasons. AS a general thing
we anticipate spring or summer
drouth in this climate and unless
we have thorough winter season
in the ground we are fearful of the
the result. The farmers who own
land in this section are pawning it
to moneyed companies for one
fifth the value and are getting out,
but those who have got no land
will have to perish with the coun-
try. l can testify to one lady that
did actually starve to death in this
community and know numbers OF
other! good, honest, shard working
people who are destitute of every
thing and starvation is at their
doors. Springtown was a thrifty
lutte village with population of
six or seven hundred. In fact, the
county was on high road to pros
perity when blighted by the dread
full scourge that still h angs over it.
To quote the old adage: sit is a
long lane that has no end" and
some of the people have been pa
tlently journeying along for the
past twenty-one months hoping ul-
timately to find the end with re-
turning prosperity. L. N. K.

MODERN COOKING AND MOD

They feel dull and sleepy; the
mouth has bad taste, especi-
ally in the morning. A sort
Of sticky slime collects about
the teeth. The appetite is poor.
There is a feeling like a heavy
load on the stomach; sometimes
a faint, all-gone sensation at
the pit Of the stomach which
food does not satisfy. The
eyes are sunken, the hands
and feet become cold and feel
clammy. After a while a
cough sets in, at first dry, but
after a few months it is at
tended with a greenish colored
expectoration. The patient
feels tired all the while, and
sleep does not seem to afford
any rest. After time he be-
comes nervous, irritable and
gloomy, and has evil forebod-
ings. There is a giddiness, a
sort of whirling sensation in
the head when rising up sud-
denly. The bowels become
costive; the skin is dry and
hot at times; the blood becomes
thick and stagnant; the whites
Of the eyes become tinged with
yellow; the kidney secretions
becomes scanty and high col
ored, depositing a sediment
after standing. There is fire.

this beyond a doubt. Sold by

The Presidents Working Clothes,

President Cleveland is almost as
much of a night owl as was the late
President Arthur, says the Boston
Traveller, but he is an early riser
while Mr.. Arthur never had his
breakfast before ii O clock. One of
his friends wished an audience the
other day and was somewhat as
tonished to receive as a reply that
1.-The president would receive him
any time after III p. M, and this is
by no means an unfrequent occur.
renee at the white house.
During the day the president al
ways wears q broadcloth Prince
Albert coat, with dark trousers, and
vest which shows a very liberal
display of shirt front. His cravat
is of black silk, about an inch in
width, and he ties it in an old
fashioned bow knot. 1t is during
these evening chats and conferences
that the president is seen at his
ease. He is very fond of an old
suit which he calls his working
clothes" And such an outfit In
the first place comes an extremely
short sack coat that barely reaches
to his hips. Then come the trousers
the bottoms of which look longing
ly at his ankles some distance away;
pair of shoes which must be an
heirloom to the Cleveland family,
and smoking cap with a tassel
completes the description. 1t is
just such a makeup as one often
sees on the comedian in some old
farce, but the president likes it and
clings to it like an old friend.

DR.. Higdon Dwindles Down.

If it will pay Giles county to tax
herself for the railroad, she ought to
10 it; if it Will not pay her, she
ought not. That is a plain, sensi-
bic proposition and that is the
starting point of all The CITIZEN
has had to say. We cannot get
DR.. Higdon down to the considera-
ton of that proposition and we
give it up in dispoir. His letter
this week does not contain one sin
gle syllable, fact or argument, be-
yond his bare assertion, to show the
pnwisdom of the proposed taxation.
We have given him full, free use Of
our columns, because we believed
his side ought to be heard. The
ruth is, The CITIZEN is open to
conviction, and if DR.. Higdon or
any one else can show why we
ought not to issue bonds we are
ready to take up arms against it.
We are seeking to subserve the best
interest Of our county and people

l have just closed my second
round of my fourth year on this dis
trict. The retrospect is gratifying.
God has wonderfully blessed US
along all the lines which go to make
up the prosperity Of the church.
The preachers will remember that l
have argued early collections for
connectional purposes in order to
more successful collections for min
lsterial support. Take two facts:
L. The district paid more on the
collections ordered by the annual
conference during the first quarter
than it has ever paid On any first
quarter before. In addition to this
there was some advancement 90
ministerial support. 2. The figures
show that the district has paid one
third more on this the second round
than it has paid on any second
round in four years.
Facts and figures show that the
final failure in finances is due to
great extent to the apathy of the
third quarter. Money is scarce"
you say. Is it indeed so scarce that
you cannot by timely, unanimous
and faithful effort collect one fourth
of your pastors salary? Think.
Are you too busy? Now, really,
can you not find time during three
months to gather up from your
list or people the amount which
you are expected to bring to the
third quarterly conference, or pay
to your preacher as fast as you col
lect it?
Our district conference will con-
vene a. Lynnville on the Decatur
railroad April % and continue until
May l. Bishop E. r. Hendrix will
preside. To all who were ever
blessed with the deep spiritual min
istry of the sainted Marvin / say
come! | hope the preachers will
see their delegates and alternates
and arrange for a full delegation
from each pastoral charge. Broth
rem, you can do a good you know
not of by faithful effort in this
matter. Remember, he who allows
himself elected to office in the
church of God and fails to fiji that
office from any other than providen-
tial reasons has betrayed a sacred
trust. The 14th and 10Th ques-
lions belong to the Bird quarterly
conference. The brethren will please
remember this.
In the three years past the dis
trict has been wonderfully blessed
IN the number Of confessions of
faith in Christ and accessions to
the church. Three thousand four
hundred and seventy-six having
made professions and a large per
cent of them added to the church ;
mot by might, nor by power, but
by my spirit saith the Lord of
Hosts AS the result of this spir-
itual awakening and the faithful
labors Of our preachers every mate
rial interest in the district has kept
pace with the spiritual. God has
greatly rewarded the faithful labors
of his servants. l earnestly Sc
licit the hearty co operation of pas
tors, officials and all lay mem bers
in promoting by every available
means the salvation Of men from
this TO the close of the conference
year. God has a bountiful blessing
in store for those who have so
cheerfully brought their tithes into
His store house since last October.
